Diversionary tactic of Vice President Sara Duterte EXPOSED! The Chairman of the House Committee on Appropriations responded to the video message of the Vice President Sara Duterte last night and I agree that this is nothing but a diversionary tactic. In his speech as attached below, Chairman Zaldy Co pointed out very good points and I highly recommend you watch its entirety. The video message last night was a diversionary tactic to the real issues 1.) the 125 million confidential funds spent in 11 days 2.) Low PISA score 3.) Issues and questions about the DepEd expenditures and a lot more. If there is one thing I want to highlight here, it is probably the part when Chairman Zaldy Co said that Vice President Sara Duterte assured them she can defend/justify the requested confidential funds. And so, let me thank the 19th Congress for disapproving the confidential funds requested by the OVP in 2024. “Pang-apat, paulit-ulit niyang sinasabi, "I will defer to the wisdom of Congress," pero hindi ito totoo. Kung talagang iginagalang niya ang Kongreso, sasagutin niya ang mga tanong, lalo na sa isyu ng confidential funds. Last year, kinausap namin si VP Sara tungkol sa 2024 budget, at sinabi niya na “ituloy n’yo yan” – meaning ang confidential funds – dahil kaya daw niya itong i-justify. Buti na lang at hindi namin itinuloy. Tama ang ginawa namin, at saludo ako sa aking mga kasama sa Kongreso. Ang kapangyarihan ng budget ay nasa Kongreso, at ipinagmamalaki ko na hindi namin isinuko ang kapangyarihang ito sa Office of the Vice President. Ang pinag-uusapan dito ay pondo ng taumbayan. Tandaan, ang COA, hindi Kongreso, ang nagsabing mali ang paggamit ng P73-million confidential funds sa loob lamang ng 11 araw “

Upon serious consultation with the petitioners of the 2nd impeachment complaint, which I and Cong. De Lima endorsed, they intend to withdraw their case and instead throw their support behind the 3rd impeachment complaint. Kasama ng mga complainants, nais kong diinan na hindi ito pag-urong, kundi pagpapatuloy ng kanilang sinimulan higit isang taon na ang nakaraan. From the beginning, their intent in filing was clear: Build the strongest case that will hold Vice President Sara Duterte accountable for her acts of corruption and abuse of power. Ngayon pa lang, may ibang kaalyado ng Vice President na natutuwa sa pagwi-withdraw ng complaint, thinking this shows a weakening of the case against her. Pasensya na po kung babasagin ko ang trip nila. Mas pinadadali pa nga natin ang pagpapa-impeach sa kanya. With one less complaint, we are now expediting Vice President Sara Duterte’s long-delayed day of accountability. I fully trust that this Committee will decide on the merits of this case, nang sa wakas ay maihatid na natin ito hanggang sa Senado. Tuloy ang laban!

'TO US, IT'S A SCAM’ Atty. Mae Divinagracia stressed that the prosecution panel maintains its position that Vice President Sara Duterte’s utilization of confidential funds was a “scam." “As I’ve mentioned earlier, we in the prosecution, we just want to call a spade a spade. To us it’s a scam that was masterminded by the vice president,” she said in an ambush interview after Duterte's impeachment trial on Tuesday. Divinagracia added that she was satisfied with how hostile witness Lemuel Ortonio’s testimony went during direct examination, saying the prosecution was able to elicit the answers it wanted from him. “‘Yung mga sagot niya na evasive, we kind of anticipated that,” she said.

ICYMI: 'THANKS TO THE INCOMPETENCE OF VP SARA'S DEFENSE?' Prosecution hindi na kinailangang isalang sina Zuleika at Bello bilang hostile witnesses Imbes na maging malaking laban para sa prosecution ang pagtestigo nina OVP Chief of Staff Atty. Zuleika Lopez at Capt. Belinda Bello bilang hostile witnesses, tila mismong depensa ni VP Sara Duterte ang nagtanggal ng pangangailangan para isalang sila. Ayon kay House private prosecutor Atty. Lorna Kapunan, ang testimonya sana ni Lopez ay para patunayan na naroon siya nang sabihin ni VP Sara ang mga kontrobersyal na pahayag, na narinig din ito ng media, at na authentic ang video exhibit. Pero ayon kay Kapunan, hindi na ito kailangan dahil mismong depensa ang umamin na naganap ang press conference at ginamit pa ang parehong video bilang ebidensya. Mas naging direkta pa si Kapunan nang pangalanan si defense counsel Atty. Mark Vinluan, na ayon sa kanya ay mahigit 10 beses binanggit sa kanyang opening at closing remarks na naganap ang naturang press conference. Kaya, ayon kay Kapunan, "It is the wisdom of the public prosecutors... that we find it totally unnecessary, redundant, and a surplusage to still present Atty. Zuleika Lopez and as well as Capt. Belinda Bello." Sa madaling salita, kung may dapat pasalamatan ang prosecution sa pag-streamline ng kaso nito sa Article IV, tila ang pinakamalaking ambag ay nanggaling mismo sa sariling admissions ng depensa.

'MAS GUSTO BA NILA IPALIT 'YUNG HINDI MAKAPAG-EXPLAIN SA KANILANG CONFIDENTIAL FUNDS?' Palace Press Officer Atty. Claire Castro dismissed reports that some key military and police officials might withdraw their support for President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. In what appeared to be a jab at Vice President Sara Duterte, Castro brought up the issue of confidential funds, which became controversial during Duterte’s stint as Education Secretary. "Mas gugustuhin po ba nilang ibagsak ang gobyerno at ipalit ang mga taong may bahid ng korapsyon? Yung hindi makapag-explain sa kanilang confidential funds?" asked Castro. "Parang hindi naman po ganyan ang mga uniformed personnel at officials. Meron naman po silang utak at isip na ginagamit," she added. #AgendaWeekend

Vice President Sara Duterte said Presidential Spokesperson Claire Castro should demonstrate professionalism in her public statements, saying she represents the Office of the President. Duterte said this when asked to comment on Castro's response to her earlier statement allegedly linking Pres. Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to the International Criminal Court, which Castro described as "nonsense" and "baseless." “By the fact na spokesperson ka, at mayroong seal ng Office of the President diyan, dapat maging professional ka sa mga sinasabi mo. She doesn’t have the liberty na tulad sa atin, na pwedeng magsalita ng kahit anong iniisip natin at kahit anong opinyon natin, kasi nagsasalita tayo para sa sarili natin,” she said in an interview in Davao City on Thursday.

'KUNG EVIDENCE LANG BASEHAN... 100% CONVICTION' Akbayan Representative Perci Cendaña asserts that if evidence will be the sole basis of the impeachment court then the prosecution can secure a conviction against Vice President Sara Duterte in connection to her alleged unexplained wealth. "Plus the fact na hindi nila ito dineklara sa kanilang SALN. So kaya naintidihan natin bakit ganito na lang kadesperado ang depensa kahapon na harangin 'yung paglabas ng subpoena," he told the media during an ambush interview at the Senate on Tuesday. This comes after the impeachment court granted the request of the prosecution team of the House of Representatives to subpoena the bank and tax records of Vice President Sara Duterte and her husband Manases Carpio ahead of the court’s deliberation on her alleged unexplained wealth. "Isa na naman itong matibay na ebidensya kasama nu'ng iba nating ebidensya. And sinasabi ko, kung evidence lang ang magiging basehan ng pagboto ng impeachment court, 100 percent conviction," the lawmaker added. | via Rona Amparo

“MULA SA ARAW NA ITO…” SISON NAGBABALA MATAPOS ANG 13-1-6 VOTE: SARA DUTERTE’S PARTICIPATION NOW “AD CAUTELAM” Hindi pinalampas ng lead defense counsel na si Atty. Sheila Sison ang naging resulta ng botohan sa appeal ni Sen. Erwin Tulfo. Matapos manalo ang appeal sa 13-1-6 vote, na nagresulta sa bagong controlling interpretation ng voting threshold, naglabas si Sison ng isang matapang na manifestation para sa record. Diretso niyang sinabi: “Let it be clear that the respondent does not shrink from accountability, nor does she fear the outcome of this impeachment trial.” Pero kasunod nito, iginiit ng defense na ang hinihingi lamang nila ay ang basic guarantees ng isang constitutional process: “Only the most essential and basic guarantees due to every individual: fairness and impartiality.” At dito naging kapansin-pansin ang kanyang warning. “Mula sa araw na ito, the respondent's participation, or any participation that the respondent will have in this trial, ay may tahasang pag-iingat, or with ad cautelam.”

Ang pinakamalakas na ebidensya sa impeachment proceeding laban kay VP Sara ay si VP Sara mismo. Nakita natin ang matinding pagbabanta nya sa Pangulo, sa First Lady, at sa former Speaker of the House. Ayon sa Konstitusyon, ang Bise Presidente ang papalit kapag nawala o maging incapacitated ang Pangulo. Sa pagbabanta nya sa buhay ng Presidente, hindi ba’t malinaw na may conflict? These threats are real, credible, and deeply alarming. They constitute inciting to sedition. Napakabigat at seryosong bagay ito na hindi pwedeng balewalain. If we fail to act on this, we do not just ignore a threat; we weaken the very foundations of accountability in this country. Sa pagbabantang ito, higit pa sa probable cause ang ating nakita sa impeachment proceeding, kaya nararapat lamang na umusad na ang prosesong ito.
